The Bovine Genome Project Consortium

The Bovine Genome Project Consortium is an international team that mapped the complete DNA sequence of cattle. This project helps scientists understand the genetic traits of cows, such as disease resistance, milk production, and growth. By decoding the cow's genome, researchers can improve breeding programs, enhance productivity, and address health issues more effectively. It also provides valuable insights into bovine biology, conservation, and how cattle have evolved. Overall, the project advances agricultural practices and supports sustainable livestock management worldwide.
